Book excerpt: Excerpt from Something of Italy The present volume is only what it purports to be, Something, not much, about italy - just those glances at the country, its people, and usages which were casually obtained during a three months' excursion in the spring and summer of 1862, along with such observations as are suggested by the hopeful progress of those portions of the Italian peninsula lately nationalised, as well as by the dismal backwardness of those other parts - Rome and Venetia - still under an antiquated and relentless thraldom. The illustrations are chie y from photographs, in the prepara tion of which the Italians sustain their reputation for artistic excellence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Classical Tour Through Italy, Vol. 1 The Publisher thought, that he should gratify several of the Purchasers of this Edition of Mr. Eustace's Classical Tour by uniting it with the additional Volume of Sir Richard Colt Hoare, so as to form one complete Work upon the present and past State of Italy. He cannot but regret, that Mr. Eustace did not live to finish the supplementary Volume which he had meditated, and for which he was engaged in collecting materials, when a premature death put an end to his valuable life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Edens of Italy N our day it has come to pass, that the tour of Europe is quite I commonly regarded as the essential complement of a good education. Perhaps no popular notion is better founded in fact; since, of all means merely human, foreign travel is the most effectual for expanding the mind and improving the heart. But to the classical scholar and the student of history what other transatlantic country is so full of interest and instruction as Italy Among the many, however, who visit that land of art and beauty, how few can say they have really seen it! Hare says, not more than one in five hundred. A month they spend in Rome, a fortnight in Naples, a week in Florence, three days in Venice, and two perchance in Milan. To a score of other cities, as rich in classic interest and heroic fame as in the productions of the pencil and the chisel, if they visit them at all, they can give but a few hurried hours, and these for the most part very poorly employed. Travelling per le paste with fresh relays of horses every two leagues, or dozing on velvet cushions while charioted along thirty miles an hour by stradaferrata, as if their aim were to get over as much ground and acquire as little knowl edge as possible, they make the tour of Italy with hardly a single valuable acquisition to their small stock of intelligence, and actually profit less from their trip than he who carries'an artist outside of his coach to sketch whatever of interest he may pass while sleeping within.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tourist in Italy To the eye of the stranger the aspect of Venice first pre sents itself like some vision of the deep, while her history fills the mind with awe and wonder at the stern and fearful realities and heroic recollections with which it abounds. She stands alone and unparalleled in the annals of Italy's tempestuous rep'ublics, - those hypocrites of liberty, which recoiled from foreign despotism only the more effectually (to exalt themselves, by harassing and oppressing each other. While torn by internal factions and successive revolutions, the rest of Italy wielded at will their fierce democracies, Venice preserved unshaken her high and palmy state, based on the deep, invisible foundations of her more than Machiavellian system, - the combination of petty tyrants, which, unlike that of slaves, seldom fails to accomplish the objects it has in view.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Italian Travel (1580-1900) It would not be possible to find a generalisation wide enough to express the difference of the Italian and the Teutonic conceptions of life. It was necessary to indicate that a fundamental difference does exist. The better we understand this fact, the easier it will be to trace the gradual appreciation of Italian art from the years following on the close of the Renaissance - which was also the period of the northern Reformation - to the end of the nineteenth century.

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from When Mother Lets Us Travel in Italy Perhaps the wanderings of an American family in Italy will interest not only those who can follow in their footsteps, but also those who must stay at home. The journeying of an entire family is rarely a mere holiday, and in the case of Mr. And Mrs. Car ter, and their children, business of an important nature dictates their route. Mr. Carter has been sent abroad by his native state, to study the design ing and building of foreign cities. Sometimes, he is able to make his work interest ing to his children; often he can allow himself a holiday, and join them in excursions to places that hold little promise of help to those who are dream ing of a City Beautiful in Texas. It is to be hoped that the Italian experiences of Alice, Jack and the twins, will lead their friends to follow their fortunes into France and Holland, and the other fascinating countries of Europe.
